Posting the Coke Studio video of the two artists performing Chaap Tilak she wrote, "Abida Parveen and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan are two of my favourite vocalists of Sufi music. This song is called Chaap Tilak and you can go on YouTube to check out the lyrics. They are beautiful."

Not only did she announce her love for Sufi music, Jada also called the two singers her favourite. The Bad Moms star then urged followers to read the song's lyrics - a poem by Amir Khusro.
